Gingrich businesses owed unpaid state taxes

(AP) – 1 day ago

ATLANTA (AP) — Companies run by Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich have faced overdue tax bills in four states worth more than $6,000.

Records reviewed by The Associated Press show the tax liens ranged from a $195 property tax bill in the Atlanta suburbs to $1,969 in unpaid Missouri taxes. Most of the liens were paid shortly after tax authorities filed them. Liens also had been filed in Indiana.

One exception was in Pennsylvania, where Gingrich Holdings Inc. last week paid off a $1,599 lien for unpaid corporate income taxes just days before Gingrich formally announced his presidential run.

Gingrich spokesman Rick Tyler said Gingrich and his firms were unaware of the liens until recently. He said the companies have either paid the bills or filed documents necessary to resolve the underlying problems.
